She's happy on the treetop but still needs to flap her wings from time to time. colored pencils on recycled paper, with oragami paper cut out ornaments and a hand drawn angel.
Stop motion is where it's at.

Hi!
Our submission is not a typical heartwarming Christmas tale, but a modern twist of two bitter baristas who have to work on Christmas. This drunken tale of friendship is what Christmas is all about.

No matter what you celebrate, don’t let the holidays stress you out too much. It really is the thought that counts. Isn’t it?

Hope you enjoy it!
